Power Progression

Stage / Realm / Level Chapter Notes
Jianmu Seed 59 A refined Jianmu Fragment becomes a soybean-sized seed with 36 grooves and is planted in Han Yuan’s Dantian. A 10× multiplier expands it and raises its grooves to 360.
Initial Awakening 107 108 After its grooves are filled, the seed awakens by consuming Han Yuan’s spiritual power, Earth Vein energy, and Wood Power; it grows to the size of a baby’s fist.
Sprouting Stage 169 The seed sprouts after Han Yuan reaches Nascent Soul. Its first two leaves bear the Laws of Earth and Wood.
Three-leaf Sapling 173 Absorption of Wind Power produces a third leaf, allowing Jianmu to retain Law Power that Han Yuan cannot yet comprehend.
Nine Law Leaves 190 Jianmu condenses immature leaves of Gold, Water, Fire, and Earth, joining its Wood, Earth, and Wind leaves. Its innate talent can refine Dao Charm into Law Power.
Seedling Stage 245 Jianmu transforms from a nine-leaf tree into a true sapling with thousands of leaves, elevating Han Yuan’s Nascent Soul and body into Void Comprehension.
Sapling Stage 327 Opening twelve internal realms completes the transition from seedling to sapling; its roots begin drawing energy from unknown spaces.
Top-grade Postnatal Spiritual Root 328 Jianmu’s foundation rises from low-grade to top-grade Postnatal Spiritual Root status after the sapling breakthrough.
Golden Immortal-level Tree Body 407 A surge of True Immortal power drives Jianmu through True Immortal perfection and into the Golden Immortal level.
Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Root 428 Jianmu advances to a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Root, gains command of 99 Taiyi Great Daos, and acquires the ability to create small worlds.
High-grade Innate Spiritual Root-equivalent Power 429 Its accumulated transformations let a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Root exhibit power comparable to a high-grade one; creating countless leaf-worlds increases its gravitas tenfold.
Self-Contained Space-Time 452 Jianmu completes a spacetime loop independent of the Immortal Realm’s Heavenly Dao and gains the Body of the Great Dao.
Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal Integration 486 Its Mana ocean, Han Yuan’s Nascent Soul, Soul, and True Spirit merge into Jianmu. Its roots can anchor past and future Chaos spacetime.
Primordial Jianmu 648 Jianmu’s foundation changes from Origin Source to Dao Source, enabling it to generate Chaos Worlds on its branches.
Peak Initial Origin Dao Realm 713 Jianmu, the Jianmu Great Dao, and Han Yuan’s will become one; Jianmu gains an open-ended path of growth through devouring Dao Source.

Top-grade Primordial Spirit Treasure 784 Jianmu’s body is recognized as a top-grade Primordial Spirit Treasure and naturally possesses three Profound Mystery Great Miracles.

Background / History

Ancient records describe the original Jianmu as a naturally divine being whose soul was annihilated twenty trillion years earlier. Its enemies shattered and scattered its remaining body across the Immortal Realm, then spread cultivation methods encouraging others to refine the fragments so they could not reunite and restore Jianmu’s innate status. 362

Han Yuan obtains a processed fragment by requesting the “ancient secret path” from the Inheritance Crystal three times. Refining it reveals the purpose of the Ancient Wood Nourishing Spirit Art and its supporting arts: they were designed to hide a cultivator’s aura, recover spiritual power, and supply the enormous Spiritual Sense cost of bearing a Jianmu Fragment. 59

The fragment collapses into the Jianmu Seed, which Han Yuan plants at the center of his Dantian. During his Golden Core breakthrough, a youth-like consciousness awakens within the seed and seeks to control Han Yuan’s body to ascend to the Immortal Realm. 59 167 Han Yuan’s soul later merges with the sprouted Jianmu; the awakened remnant soul perishes, while its knowledge and insights are absorbed. Jianmu thereafter becomes Han Yuan’s genuine second body. 168

Appearance

Jianmu’s form changes radically with its growth, from a patterned seed to an immense world-bearing tree.

  • As a seed, it is soybean-sized, shriveled, and marked by 36 grooves; after a multiplier enhancement, it bears 360 grooves. 59
  • Its first external manifestation is a hundred-meter tree with a bare trunk, three leaves, and slender roots. 179
  • Its early Law Leaves bear the Laws of Wood, Earth, and Wind; later leaves carry additional elemental Law Power. 169 190
  • Its later branches and leaves can contain complete worlds, while roots extend through space and into Chaos. 429 486
  • When covered by Mysterious Black Mist, its normally verdant form becomes dark and deathly in appearance. 706

Abilities & Skills

Energy Absorption and Refinement

Jianmu absorbs spiritual energy, Earth Vein energy, Wood Power, immortal energy, Chaos Qi, Dao Charm, and Dao Source, refining them into Mana, World Power, or Law Power.

  • Its seed stabilizes Han Yuan’s Dantian and devours the spiritual power circulating within it. 59
  • It can draw immense quantities of violent attribute power and convert them into attribute-less Mana. 173
  • It refines Dao Charm and profound mysteries into higher-order Law Power, even in environments where Law Power is scarce. 190
  • It can absorb immortal energy despite being only in the seedling stage. 276
  • It can slowly refine even World-Destroying Black Flame, though the flame inflicts severe damage while the process continues. 290
  • Its later roots absorb Chaos Qi at greatly accelerated rates. 486

Law Leaves

Jianmu stores and bears laws through specialized leaves, allowing Han Yuan to draw upon powers beyond his own immediate comprehension.

  • The first mature leaves represent the Laws of Wood and Earth. 169
  • Its third leaf stores Wind Law traces accumulated from Furious Wind God Valley. 173
  • Law Leaves can be supplied to activate or improve Divine Abilities, such as the Earth Glazed Golden Body. 181
  • Law Leaves convert World Power generated by World Fruits into usable Law Power. 250
  • During an earlier battle, Jianmu’s nine Law Origin Leaves were identified as a critical target for disrupting its law transformation. 251

Myriad Spirits Dominion

As an Immortal Seed, Jianmu exerts natural authority over the world powers around it.

  • Upon entering the Hundred Herbs Secret Realm, it causes surrounding world powers to submit. 181
  • It strips control of Wood Power from the Hundred Herbs Daoist, whose mastery of the Secret Realm initially gave him a major advantage. 181
  • A Random Buff Multiplier increases Myriad Spirits Dominion by 500%, further weakening the Daoist’s control over Wood Power. 181

Recovery and Defensive Power

Jianmu has exceptional restoration and defensive capabilities.

  • Its Law of Wood rapidly repairs catastrophic damage to its trunk. 250
  • Its leaves and World Fruits continuously provide World Power and Law Power for regeneration. 290
  • The Law of Earth can empower Jianmu’s defensive ability into the Earth Glazed Golden Body, which withstands tens of thousands of Nascent Soul-level arrows without visible damage. 181
  • Its innate recovery talent is considered comparable to a Great Divine Ability and supports sustained combat. 219

Spatial Roots and Avatars

Jianmu’s roots function as extensions of Han Yuan across sealed spaces and vast distances.

  • A root can pierce through spatial barriers and enter a Secret Realm without a Space Gate. 179 180
  • Han Yuan can extend his consciousness through a detached root across layers of space. 180
  • Roots can draw on Jianmu’s main body to condense independent avatars. 201
  • Jianmu initially supports up to nine simultaneous root-based avatars. 217
  • After talent-sharing enhancements, it can create 12 small Jianmu, 12 illusionary worlds, and 12 self-contained leaf-worlds. 237
  • In Primordial Chaos, its roots gain the ability to traverse spacetime using Chaos spacetime coordinates. 486

World Creation and Realm Control

Jianmu develops World Fruits and internal worlds that generate power, sustain cultivation, and expand Han Yuan’s territory.

  • It forms World Fruits by absorbing Space Power, Law Power, immortal energy, and specialized energies. 246 276 309
  • A World Fruit can develop into a complete world and naturally produce World Power for Jianmu. 250
  • Jianmu can create countless small worlds across its leaves, turning itself into a genuine World Tree. 429
  • It stabilizes collapsing Secret Realms by anchoring them with its roots. 181
  • Its later form produces Chaos Worlds on its branches, with the lives within feeding Dao Source back into Jianmu. 648

Jianmu Great Dao

The Jianmu Great Dao is an independent Dao inherent to Jianmu rather than a composite of external systems.

  • It inherently contains powers associated with spacetime, the Five Elements, devouring, worlds, creation, and destruction. 713
  • Jianmu, its Great Dao, and Han Yuan’s will form a unified trinity. 713
  • Its roots can seal spacetime, drain vitality, devour energy, and transform the surrounding area into a rule domain. 714
  • Within this domain, weaker rules and Great Daos may be negated or suppressed to a fraction of their normal output. 714
  • It can identify flaws in lesser Origin Daos and rewrite, destroy, or corrupt their underlying rules. 714

Self-Contained Space-Time and Great Miracles

Jianmu eventually develops powers that separate it from external cosmic constraints.

  • Self-Contained Space-Time — Jianmu becomes an independent spacetime loop that the Immortal Realm’s Heavenly Dao cannot track. 452
  • Body of the Great Dao — Its body and Mana can be converted into one another without limit, removing any fixed cap on its size. 452
  • Body Manifests Primordial — Jianmu evolves into an existence conceptually comparable to the Primordial and Void Domain. 784
  • Heart of Rules — The Jianmu Heart serves as its condensed core of Miracle Rule Power. 776 784
  • Master of Origin — A Profound Mystery Great Miracle connected to control of the Dice. 784

Relationships

  • Han Yuan — Refiner, host, and eventual unified counterpart. Jianmu becomes his second body after their souls merge, and later fuses with his will and Jianmu Great Dao into a trinity. 168 713
  • Inheritance Crystal — Grants Han Yuan the processed Jianmu Fragment that becomes the Jianmu Seed. 59
  • Hundred Herbs Daoist — Attempts to seize Jianmu’s root within the Hundred Herbs Secret Realm; Jianmu overwhelms his control of Wood Power and devours his soul. 180 181
  • Lin Xing and the other Reincarnated Immortals — Receive one-tenth copies of Jianmu’s talent through the Heaven God Concordance Scroll, while their Immortal Seed patterns augment Jianmu in return. 237
  • Mofa Dominator — Enters the Jianmu Origin Realm and is trapped after his connection to his territory, clones, and resurrection methods is severed. 754
